Sorting albums in Album sets
Hi, how are albums sorted?
I plan to move all my galleries over from Nextgen on Wordpress and before I do I want to make sure they remain or I set them up so they remain chronologically correct.
I am creating albums under an album set, currently named after the couples names
At the moment it looks alphabetical so would probably need to use a number or date prefix.
What a steep learning curve..

Re: Sorting albums in Album sets
Albums are sorted alpha-numerically. So using a number or date prefix works well for custom sorting.

Re: Sorting albums in Album sets
You can also reverse the order along with a couple other advanced options
